Eupeithes

（Εὐπείθης), of Ithaca, father of Antinoüs. Once when he had attacked the Thesprotians, the allies of the Ithacans, Odysscus protected him from the indignation of the people of Ithaca. When Odysseus after his long wanderings returned home, Eupeithes wanted to avenge the death of his son Antinous, who had been one of Penelope's suitors and was slain by Odysseus. He accordingly led a band of Ithacans against Odysseus, but fell in the struggle. (Hom. Od. 16.436, 24.469, 523.)

William Smith. A Dictionary of Greek and Roman biography and mythology. London. John Murray: printed by Spottiswoode and Co., New-Street Square and Parliament Street. In the article on Soranus, we find: "at this present time (1848)" and this date seems to reflect the dates of works cited. 1873 - probably the printing date.
